"Eat & Snack Allergen Free with Tasterie"

Back in July of 2016, I met Denise of Tasterie (www.tasterie.com). For those who may not be familiar with Tasterie, they offer allergy free subscription boxes delivered to your home each month. Several years ago when Tasterie first came around I was instantly drawn to them because they were founded by a Physician Mom who was tired of searching for safe snacks for her 2 children. I totally related! I too was tired of buying the same old snacks and having to search for new safe, good for you options. I immediately ordered 6 months worth of delivered snack boxes. My son was delighted to get his boxes, at first. After about the third month things changed. The boxes contained yummy, healthy options but options my than 6 year old was not interested in eating (I recall a packet of tomato and basil flavored pumpkin seeds). I ended the subscription and went back to searching for safe options.​
Fast forward several years and I meet Denise, head of Marketing and Social Media at Tasterie, at a gluten and allergy expo in Worcester, MA.

Denise and I talked for a while, I told her why we stopped buying the boxes and she said, “Let me send you next months box and let me know what you and your son think.”  Hey, I used to have a boss who’s motto was, “If it”s free it’s for me!” so I went by his motto and said, “Sure!” A few weeks later a box full of peanut and tree nut free items arrived. And Denise was right, the only thing similar to their original box was the box itself. Inside were full sized treats and they were all edible according to my son! (I have to add, his non allergic siblings were so jealous!) 
As you can see from the picture this box was full of delicious, safe, good for your treats, including a full size jar of SunButter and 2 full size Enjoy Life bars! What kid (and Mom) wouldn’t be happy with this box?
